Library

The Valdez Consortium Library invites you to a video conference launch party! We will have refreshments, freebies from the Alaska OWL project, and a drawing for a Nook e-reader. Stop by and see the new setup provided by the Alaska OWL project. Please contact the Library for more information.

After the Launch Party, see a live video conference with Alaska Native Storyteller Ishmael Hope. Hope will share his experience of slowly learning the ways of being and knowing of his ancestors, and his appreciation of their mastery as storytellers, orators and artists. He will also talk about the long and joyful apprenticeship of becoming an indigenous storyteller through learning our heritage languages, spending time with Elders, and learning to sense the spirit of their worldviews.
